Igcse Model Questions Vol1 2017 Biology Question 30
Practice objective / multiple choice question 30 from the 2017 Igcse Model Questions Vol1 Biology examination.
A swimmer is immersed in water that is at a constant temperature of \(10\) °C. The swimmer's initial body temperature is \(37\) °C. Assuming the swimmer's metabolic heat production is negligible, the cooling of the body follows Newton's law of cooling: \(T(t) = T_{env} + (T_{0} - T_{env})e^{-kt}\), where \(k = 0.1\) min⁻¹. Calculate the body temperature after \(5\) minutes. Give your answer to two decimal places in degrees Celsius.
